Carol, Bob, and family, you have my deepest sympathy on the passing of Carol’s mom. May all the wonderful memories you hold bring you comfort in the days and months ahead. Losing the mother you have loved for so many years is not easy, but take comfort in the fact that as long as you remember her, she will always be with you.

May you find strength and courage to carry you through this difficult time. Mother/Grandma had a long life and her passing will leave a void in your family circle.
Those we love do not go away
They walk beside us everyday
Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
With deepest sympathy – Margaret & Mary
